<p>The purpose of this study has been to explore the expectations of the primary school on the activities of the pre-school. In order to limit the study I have chosen to compare the expectations found in two different schools. In the first case, the pre-school is integrated with the after-school centre and grade one to three (primary school), into the same building. In the other case, the pre-school share localities with the after-school centre in a separate building, with its own yard, within the primary school area. Since the purpose is rather comprehensive, it has been divided into sub-themes with separate set of questions. The sub-themes chosen are in themselves factors, which I believe to be of importance for the main purpose. I have used a qualitative method, why the answer may not be generalised, but give us a deeper understanding of the main question in my research, I have interviewed teachers and pre-school teachers as well as used curriculums and existing research, in order to shed light on the main question from different scientific perspectives. The result of this study shows, that the integration of the pre-school within the primary school, may be of great importance for cooperation and communication. The primary school’s expectations, however, seems to be more the result of the teacher’s and preschool teacher’s interpretations of the curriculums.</p>

The aim of my Master's Thesis is to set up a communication strategy for Nitra Community Foundation focused on gaining new donors and keeping the current ones. Thanks to the analysis of the current situation of the foundation and theoretical background describing the main problems and advantages of fundraising, I was able to research on the main causes of insufficient number of donors. I chose a content analysis as the methodology for my research. Referring to the research results, the most urgent causes of an unfavourable financial situation are these: insufficient communication of the need for new donors and concrete ways how to help the foundation. On the basis of the gained knowledge and data, I am suggesting a new communication strategy for Nitra Community Foundation focused on gaining new donors and trying to eliminate current communication mistakes. I expect risk diversification of the loss of major donors to be one of the side effects of the new strategy.
